ANOTHER MYSTERY.

The Mutilated and PURIFYING Remains OF
u Man Found in an Expressed BOX at
Pittsburgh-A Horrible Sight.
PITTSBURGH. Pa, Feb. GA box con-
tanning the detached and mutilated re-
mains of an adult was discovered in the
office of the Baltimore Il Ohio Express
Company in this city yesterday morning.
Attention was attracted to the box re-
ceived from Cincinnati yesterday morn
ing bearing the address John Osborn,
Pittsburgh" by the very offensive odor
of decaying flesh. Superintendent j. ID.
Zimmerman ordered the box opened. The
first sight of the contents caused the whole
office force to recoil with horror. A human
skull, sawed through perpendicularly
from the summit to base of the lower
Jaw, Invested of its flesh, grinned horribly
at them. Flanking the skull were the
femoral bones, black and CHASTITY. to which
were attached shreds of putrescent flesh.
Under them lay the spine, the articula-
tons of which are still full of flesh and
great hunks of gristle, far along in the
process of modification. The remaining
bones Of the body lay deeper in the box,
and to all are attached, to greater or
less extent, the flesh.
The police department and coroner's
office were notified, and detectives are en-
deavoring to find John Osborn. who is I'M
known in this city. Chief Of Detectives
O'Mara has telegraphed Chief of Police
Deitsch Of Cincinnati for any informa-
ton obtainab!c in that city.

INDIANA EXCITED.
Lieutenant Governor Robertson Pushed Ou

Lieutenant Governor Robertson Pushed Out
of the Senate.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, Feb. A.-When Green
Smith raped the Senate to order this
morning, Colonel Robertson, who had been
admitted to the floor. started toward the
chair. He was met on the steps by the
assistant doorkeeper, who told him he
could not come up. The Colonel replied
that he was the presiding officer of the
Senate and must take his seat, and
stepped forward, when the doorkeeper
repealed him to the foot of the stairs.
He thereupon stood in front of the
clerks desk and stated that he had been
elected Lieutenant-GOvernOr Of the State,
and by the constitution was the Presiding
Officer of the Senate, and he demanded his
seat. The point of order was raised that
none but members of the Senate could take
up the time of that body, which Smith
sustained and called upon the doorkeeper
to remove him from the chamber. The
doorkeeper approached Robertson, took
his arm and the two walked out to the
main door. The crowd saw Robertson come
out and there was great excitement. He
mounted the steps and made q speech, re-
citing what had transplred in the chamber,
and cautioned the people to do nothing that
would infringe on the peace or dignity of
the State, or that they would regret IN
cooler moments. During the excitement
about the Senate doors. Senator Johnson, of
Wayne, denounced the dOorkeepers, and
during the melee a number Of persons from
the inside approached the door, among
them Senator Mcdonald, who put up his
hands. johnson interpreted it as an attempt
to thrust him back and struck the Senator
or the face. Senator Denote was ordered
into his seat and when the sergeant put him
down he threw him to the floor. When the
House was called to order bills on their
passage were called up and one bill passed.
The Speaker announced that when the
Lieutenant Governor was presiding in the
Senate according to the constitution the
fact of the passage would be communicated
10 that body and not till then.

Shot by Negroes.

MEMPHIS, Tenn, Feb. 25.-Three negroes
last night in attempting to rob the grocery
store OF Henry Majors, four and half
miles east of Memphis, knocked the propri-
etOr senseless and the noise made by his
falling to the floor brought his two daugh-
ters and a young lady who was visiting
them into the store. The negroes fired upon
them, hitting Miss Mollie Tiilman in the
head and one Of his daughters in the leg.
Mrs. Majors, who appeared upon the scene
at this time, was also fred upon, but the
bullet missed its aim. The negroes then
fed. Miss Tillman's wound may prove IA

SECUTED BY De LESSEPS.

The Veteran French Engineer Scouts the
Idea of q Ship Canal Through Mica
raEua.
LONDON, Feb 26-The Standards Paris
correspondent says that in an interview NJ
de Lesseps declared that he had learned
with pleasure of the formation Of the
Nicaragua Company, which, he said, would
improve the prospects of the Panama
Canal Company. The Nicaragua Canal
being fresh water body would be useful
as means of irrigation and fertiiizing
the country. NJ. de Lesseps secuted the
idea that the Nicaragua enterprise could
be used for interoceanic traffic, as, owing to
endless locks increasing the time of tram
sit, vessels would prefer going around Cape
Horn. Referring to the Panama canal, he
SAID the only point of anxiety was the rocky
culcbra although he was finally convinced
that the contract would soon be pushed day
and night, lighting the culebra By means OF
electric lights. The directors of the COM
pany anticipate that the work accomplished
in 1887 will be double that done in 1856 The
Panama Canal Company has bough. thirty
locomotives in Belgium.

DEAR SRI have the honor TO arknowl-

me TO be the CUES; Of the Young Mems Demo-
cratic Club of Brooklyn on the ed inst, at its
annual dinner.
As you are aware am Just recovering from
a very painful illness, which does not yet per-
init me to leave my chamber. AS a matter OF
course it will be impossible for me to have the
pleasure OF dining with you on the ed. but
send my cordial greetings to the club and the dis
tinguished Democrats who will be present, and
trust that the laudablc object ut which you aim.
the protection OF the Union and the success OF
the National Democracy, will be achieved.
The principles OF the Democratic party are
on trial from new force, which has suddenly
appeared in politics, and which will destroy
the party unless it is boldly confronted and
the dangerous and pernicious effects OF its doc
trines and principles denounced and made
clear to the public. The Democratic party re-
CARDS the individual as the unit of society, the
integrity OF which depends entirely upon the
.,-rsOnal liberty Of the citizen. Jefferson and
his associates drove the Federal party out Of
power on this issue, which was fundamental
in the struggle, which gave us our free Govern
ment and produced the Constitution. Until the
civil war broke out, no man questioned the
right of the white citizens Of the United States
TO dispose o. themselves and their labor in any
manner which might seem good. The war ex-
tended the same rights to the colorcd race rs
the white citizens had previously enjoyed. SO
that, up to a very recent period, every citizen
of this country had been free to employ himself
and pursue his happiness in whatever direction
might seem to him to be good.

The Coming Ocean Yacht Race.

New YogK. Feb. 2i.-Betting is begin
ming to get lively on the coming great
ocean yacht race between the schooner
yachts Coronet and Dauntless, though as
yet chiefly confined to yachtsmcn. A club
man said last night that there was as
much as s5l0.00J upon the race already.
At the New York Clubhouse the
Daunt!ess is the favorite. Several
bets CT two TO one on the DIuntless have
been made. Great faith is pinned on Cap
tain Samueis, the oil skipper OF the
Dauntless, but the frieads of the CorOnet
remark that Captain Crosby is something
of a skipper himself: has been across the
Atlantic in the Coronet and knows what
she can do.

The Fort,t,cat;ons Compromise.

WASHINGTON, Feb 25.-The opinion OF
the Conference Committee on the Fortifica-
ton bill is that an agreement will be
reached on substantially the following
basis: That board consisting of the Sec
retaries Of War and Navy, General Sheri-
dan and two civilians, who will be ap-
pointed, to control the appropriation; that
from s., 600 900 to SlO,0oo,0OO will be appro-
priated; that the location of the ordnance
foundry will be left discretionary with the
board. Randali's bill is now under careful
consideration and probably some OF the
leading features Of that will be incor-
porated in the compromise bill upon which
the conference will agree.
